Summer Play Group - Armory Museum


Another of our Summer Play Group stops was at a local armory museum. This was our second trip there as a play group and the kids enjoyed it just as much this time. There was a really nice man working that day who likes to talk to the kids and opened up one of the tanks for the kids to climb into and get their pictures taken. A few of the older kids, including Kyler, were particularly interested in some of his stories about the various vehicles and weapons so he took them around and told them about them. He took Kyler into a roped off area to show him some of the more fragile items. Kyler really liked hearing about all the missiles and bombs.

Summer Play Group - Columbian Park and Zoo


Over the summer one of my friends puts together a schedule of fun weekly play groups. For the first one we went to Columbian Park in Lafayette. There is a really nice playground, a free zoo and butterfly garden, two big ponds were you can feed ducks and geese, a train you can ride and much more. It is a really fun place to spend the day.

We started off at the Zoo and Butterfly Garden. We got to see some VERY pregnant goats, ponies, some funky chickens, prarie dogs, and lots more.
There is a big caterpillar that the kids can climb on so we took a some big group pictures.

I have no idea what Kyler was trying to do....Climbing on the Froggies

After we were finished at the zoo we went to the playground area to have our picnic lunches. Then we headed over the ponds to feed the ducks and the geese.





We ended the day with a ride on the train
